He first started on the dusty grounds of the Thilth or third playground in his home town playing for the shaabiya team Al-Karma under the coach and school headmaster Mohammed Khalaf Salim before he made his name with Iraqi league club Al-Ramadi and then moving onto the city of Baghdad to play for Al-Kahrabaa in 2009 when he was 16 years of age.
[2] He signed for Al-Kahrabaa in 2009 and remained for two seasons until he left in 2011 towards Al-Shorta, where he first earned a call up to the Iraqi national team.
The ex-Iraqi youth captain was regarded as one of Iraq's best keepers but had to rebuild his career after goalkeeping mistakes against Saudi Arabia during the 2015 Asian Cup qualifying campaign and a calamitous error in an AFC Cup tie in the West Bank saw him dropped by the Iraqi FA and released by Al-Shorta!
He was one of 18 players signed by Zakho at the start of 2015–2016 season, with his contracted ratified by the Iraqi FA on August 24, 2015 however after just two months and 26 days later, he left the Duhok-based club by mutual consent after wanting to move to Al-Talaba in the winter transfer window.
However, because of contractual issues, the keeper was unable to sign for the Students and spent the rest of the season without a club!
